    Thanks all. I'm back out again. No obvious superpowers yet. We'll see in good time.

    My prediction would be that you'll soon be able to tell margarine from butter simply by taste. Not that it'll be useful as we haven't made the stuff in years.

    We went through the health insurance we've got to see if it would help a family member. it's got so many exceptions we don't know if it's any good at all. :(

    The procedure i had today was at the public hospital. They were very good, even having a room I could go and chill out in afterwards which had sandwiches and an apple juice.

    What really struck me was that the place was bloody spotless. No bits of food in the corners etc. It wasn't anything flash, just as you'd hope a hospital to be rather than as they are or at least as they are in Central London.

    Glad you've got through it. Hoping for the best for the scan and biopsy results. :)

    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    Oh, I forgot to say. Out of pocket cost of today was $0. Out of pocket cost for tomorrow is likely to be very high.

    He's off 28th March - 23rd April. She's off 11th April - 29th April. This is going to be an expensive Easter Break!

    Sorry - my mistake. I thought when you put 28th you meant of April.:o

    Why do they get such long holidays?:(
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.
